We propose a simple method to control the crystallization depth of amorphous silicon (a-Si) deposited by PECVD or LPCVD during the excimer laser annealing (ELA). Employing the new method, we have formed poly-Si/a-Si double film and fabricated a new poly-Si TFT with vertical a-Si offsets between the poly-Si channel and the source/drain of TFT without any additional photo-lithography process. The maximum leakage current of the new poly-Si TFT decreased about 80% due to the highly resistive vertical a-Si offsets which reduce the peak electric field in drain depletion region and suppress electron-hole pair generation. In ON state, current flows spreading down through broad a-Si cross-section in the vertical a-Si offsets and the current density in the drain depletion region where large electric field is applied is reduced. The stability of poly-Si TFT has been improved noticeably by suppressing trap state generation in drain region which is caused by high current density and large electric field. For example, ON current of the new TFT decreased only 7% at a stress condition where ON current of conventional TFT decreased 89%.

This paper presents a study on the discharge capacity of geotextiles as a horizontal drain layer placed between the layers of earth fill and natural soft ground. Required discharge capacity of geotextiles as drain layers estimated by consolidation analysis is proportional to the consolidation coefficient of the ground soils and the width of the earth fills. The field discharge capacity of the geotextiles are measured by the hydraulic transmissivity test. And the results show wide variation according to the material characteristics of geotextiles, water content of the soils, vertical pressure, and etc. For the short horizontal drain length, geotextile filter mat can be used for the horizontal drain layer. And f3r the long drain($25{\sim}55m$), it is used for the drain together with Bord Drain.

간척지나 해안지역과 같은 연약지반에 건축 및 토목공사를 위해서는 지반의 강도를 높이기 위한 연약지반개량공사가 필수적이다. 연약지반 개량 공법은 여러 가지가 있으나 우리나라를 비롯해 세계적으로 연직배수공법을 주로 사용하고 있다. 연직배수공법은 연약한 점성토 지반 내에 인공적으로 연직 배수재를 다수 설치하여 배수거리를 단축시킴으로써 압밀을 촉진시키고, 그에 따른 강도증가 효과를 얻을 수 있는 공법이다. 연직배수재로는 경제성과 시공성이 우수한 PBD가 널리 사용되고 있다. PBD 시공품질은 시공 깊이, 압력, 수직도 등에 영향을 받게 된다. 본 논문에서는 PBD 시공시 배수재의 시공 심도, 압력, 수직도를 자동측정하여 작업자가 실시간으로 모니터링 할 수 있고 시공결과를 자동 저장하는 시스템을 개발하였다. 개발된 시스템은 시공 불량 요인이 발생시 자동 경고하여 불량률을 줄일 수 있고, 장비의 이상 발생시 자동 제어시스템을 가동하여 작업의 안전성을 확보하도록 하였다.

This paper is relate to the result of pilot test in Asan. In order to evaluate the characteristics of behavior and deformation in Asan and to analyse the effect of soft ground treatment, preloading, two types of paper drain and pack drain were constructed in the ground. Settlement gauges, pressure meters, pressure cells and ground water gauges were monitored and also borings and piezoncone tests were performed. As a result of analyse, every vertical drained area was consolidated over 90% degree of consolidation but preloaded area was not reached to 90%.

In this paper, the effects of variability of smear zone characteristics induced by installation of prefabricated vertical drains on the preloading design are investigated employing analytical and numerical approaches. Conventional radial consolidation theory has been adopted to conduct analytical parametric studies considering variations of smear zone permeability and extent. FLAC 2D finite difference software has been employed to conduct the numerical simulations. The finite difference analyses have been verified using three case studies including two embankments and a large-scale laboratory consolidometer with a central geosynthetic vertical drain. A comprehensive numerical parametric study is conducted to investigate the influence of smear zone permeability and extent on the model predictions. Furthermore, the construction of the trial embankment is recommended as a reliable solution to estimate accurate smear zone properties and minimise the post construction settlement. A back-calculation procedure is employed to determine the minimum required waiting time after construction of the trial embankment to predict the smear zone characteristics precisely. Results of this study indicate that the accurate smear zone permeability and extent can be back-calculated when 30% degree of consolidation is obtained after construction of the trial embankment.

Suction Drain Method is soft ground improvement technique, in which a vacuum pressure can be directly applied to the Vertical Drain Board to promote consolidation and strengthening the soft ground. This method does not require a surcharge load, different to embankment or Preloading Method. In this study, ground improvement efficiency of suction drain method was estimated when duplex loading pressure with vacuum and pressure. During suction drain method process, surface settlement and pore pressure were monitored, and cone resistance test as well as water content were also measured after the completion of Suction Drain Method treatment.

This study was performed to investigate constraint effects of deformation (heaving, lateral displacement) of clayey foundation reinforced with sheet pile at the tip of banking on soft ground, under intact state (natural) and the state of vertical drain respectively. The following results are obtained. 1. In view of reduction in heaving or lateral displacement, sheet pile is not supposed to be of use. 2. Sheet pile is effective only when vertical drain is installed for acceleration of consolidation and gradual loading is applied.

최근에 연약지반개량공사에서 연직배수공법은 가장 많이 사용하는 공법 중 하나이다. 그러나 개량을 위한 배수재의 시공시에 지반 교란이 발생하여 스미어 존이라는 교란영역을 발생시킨다. 이렇게 발생된 스미어 존의 특징은 그 영역내의 투수계수가 감소하여, 설계시 예상하였던 압밀이 원활히 이루어지지 않는 문제점이 발생 된다는 점이다. 스미어 존의 수평압밀계수, 수평투수계수는 압밀도에 직접적으로 영향을 미치는 중요한 설계인자이다. 그러나 기존에 수행되는 설계방법에서 이러한 주요설계인자의 산정방법은 수직압밀계수에 의하여 수평압밀계수 및 수평투수계수를 경험적으로 유추하여 설계를 수행하고 있다. 그러나 이러한 방법으로 산정된 수평투수계수, 수평압밀계수는 설계 특성상 불확실성에 대한 과대설계로 진행되어 시공성, 공사기간 및 경제적인 측면에서 큰 손실을 가져올 수 있게 된다. 따라서 이번 연구에서는 국내에 서해안과 남해안 지역에 널리 분포하고 있는 저소성 지반을 대상으로 선정, 실험을 수행하여 저소성의 실트 및 점토지반에서의 스미어 존의 크기를 평가하였으며, 원지반의 압밀특성 및 물리적 특성과의 상관성 분석을 수행하여 설계시 참고자료로 활용할 수 있도록 하였다.

Improvement of soft clay deposit by preloading with vertical drains is one of the most popular techniques followed worldwide. These drains accelerate the rate of consolidation by shortening the drainage path. Although the analytical and numerical solutions available are mostly based on equal strain hypothesis, the adoption of free strain analysis is more realistic because of the flexible nature of the imposed surcharge loading, especially for the embankment loading used for transport infrastructure. In this paper, a numerical model has been developed based on free strain hypothesis for understanding the behaviour of soft ground improvement by vertical drain with preloading. The unit cell analogy is used and the effect of smear has been incorporated. The model has been validated by comparing with available field test results and thereafter, a hypothetical case study is done using the available field data for soft clay deposit existing in the eastern part of Australia and important conclusions are drawn therefrom.

본 연구에서는 스미어가 발생한 지반을 모사하고 배수재 간격비에 따른 스미어 영역 겹침 유 무가 차후의 압밀거동에 미치는 영향을 분석하기 위해 대형압밀챔버와 맨드렐 관입시험기를 이용하여 다양한 실내모형실험을 수행하였다. 또한, 이를 바탕으로 유한요소해석을 실시하였고 연직배수공법의 효율성을 분석하였다. 실험 및 해석결과 스미어 발생은 침하량을 증가시키지만 스미어 겹침은 반대로 침하량을 감소시키는 경향을 보였다. 또한 연직배수재를 설치하면 압밀이 촉진되지만 배수재 간격을 줄여도 스미어의 영향으로 압밀속도는 크게 빨라지지 않았으며, 오히려 스미어 영역이 겹칠 정도로 배수재 간격을 줄이면 압밀효율이 급격히 떨어지는 것으로 나타났다.
